- Billy and Georgie ride out of Dog Hollow to the site where Sheriff McCabe found the body.
- Georgie is upset because there's nothing remarkable about the spot—it's just somewhere on the side of the road.
- Georgie has a total breakdown when Billy removes his hat out of respect; she runs away from him, up the side of a hill.
- She sees a pile of rocks and thinks Agatha must have left a clue there, so she pulls the rock pile apart, getting covered with bugs in the process, but there's nothing there.
- Georgie rests on the bluff, thinking about everything that has happened, considering all the evidence for and against Agatha's death.
- She concludes that Agatha probably is dead and has herself a good wrenching, screaming fit.
- When she returns to Billy, he's still standing in the road where she left him, acting like everything's cool.
- They decide to thoroughly investigate the crime scene, just to make sure they haven't missed anything.
